Well it was only 8 or 9 miles away, so me and Broster decided to go and take a look.
Alan the Audi was employed to get us to the location with his frankferter like state - as we laughed about the rattles and the fact everything moved out of the way for the German tank.....................
The White Corsa sport as advertised on ebay was upon us.
First impressions were good - as described mileage was right, popped the bonnet had a poke around all good there.
Took it for a drive - lively X16XE engine. Spot on.
I wanted to hear the fan cut in and cut out - got a little worried as the fan was not going out..............
Then noticed Broster had left the air con on Everything fine there.
Made an offer which was accepted - left a deposit and will pick up by the weekend.
So thats it Teddy is back in a Corsa Only thing i dont like about it is the stupid over sensative power steering - the GSi only had assisted, whereas this has full - if you ever follow me dont be surprised if i end up heading over the other side of the road 
Standard White 1.6 Sport
V Reg - 1999.
Very happy - soon as we pick it up its being driven to Broster/Teddytech for some work to be carried out and start the process

First time I test-drove mine, after driving a 1.2 8v for far too long, I nearly ended up driving over a mini roundabout after completely under-estimating how easy it was to turn the steering wheel!
